Setting up Directory database failover through SQL AlwaysOn

If you are using the Windows feature SQL AlwaysOn as your Directory database failover solution, you must configure the Directory Manager to use SQL AlwaysOn in Config Tool.

Before you begin

All database servers must be accessible from all Directory servers. You must configure the remote database server (SQL Server) to accept connection requests from the roles.

To use SQL AlwaysOn as your Directory database failover solution:

  1. From the Config Tool home page, open the System task, and click the Roles view.
  2. Select the Directory Manager () role, and click the Database failover tab.
  3. Switch the Use database failover option to ON, and select the SQL AlwaysOn option.
  4. Click Apply.
